¹ደግሞም ወደ ምኵራብ ገባ፥ በዚያም እጁ የሰለለች ሰው ነበር፤

¹He entered again into the synagogue, and there was a man there who had his hand withered.

²ሊከሱትም፥ በሰንበት ይፈውሰው እንደ ሆነ ይጠባበቁት ነበር።

²They watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

³እጁ የሰለለችውንም ሰው። ተነሥተህ ወደ መካከል ና አለው።

³He said to the man who had his hand withered, “Stand up.”

⁴በሰንበት በጎ ማድረግ ተፈቅዶአልን? ወይስ ክፉ? ነፍስ ማዳን ወይስ መግደል? አላቸው፤ እነርሱም ዝም አሉ።

⁴He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?” But they were silent.

⁵ስለ ልባቸውም ድንዛዜ አዝኖ ዙሪያውን እየተመለከተ በቍጣ አያቸው፥ ሰውየውንም። እጅህን ዘርጋ አለው።

⁵When he had looked around at them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored as healthy as the other.

⁶ዘረጋትም፥ እጁም ዳነች። ፈሪሳውያንም ወጥተው ወዲያው እንዴት አድርገው እንዲያጠፉት ከሄሮድስ ወገን ጋር ተማከሩበት።

⁶The Pharisees went out, and immediately conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

⁷ኢየሱስም ከደቀ መዛሙርቱ ጋር ወደ ባህር ፈቀቅ አለ፤ ከገሊላ የመጡም ብዙ ሰዎች ተከተሉት፤

⁷Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples, and a great multitude followed him from Galilee, from Judea,

⁸እንዴት ትልቅ ነገርም እንዳደረገው ሰምተው ብዙ ሰዎች ከይሁዳ ከኢየሩሳሌምም ከኤዶምያስም ከዮርዳኖስ ማዶም ከጢሮስና ከሲዶና ምድርም ወደ እርሱ መጡ።

⁸from Jerusalem, from Idumaea, beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

⁹ሰዎቹም እንዳያጋፉት ታንኳን ያቆዩለት ዘንድ ደቀ መዛሙርቱን አዘዛቸው፤

⁹He spoke to his disciples that a little boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they wouldn’t press on him.

¹⁰ብዙ ሰዎችን አድኖ ነበርና፥ ስለዚህም ሥቃይ ያለባቸው ሁሉ እንዲዳስሱት ይወድቁበት ነበር።

¹⁰For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.

¹¹ርኵሳን መናፍስትም ባዩት ጊዜ በፊቱ ተደፍተው። አንተ የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ ነህ እያሉ ጮኹ።

¹¹The unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, “You are the Son of God!”

¹²እንዳይገልጡትም በጣም አዘዛቸው።

¹²He sternly warned them that they should not make him known.

¹³ወደ ተራራም ወጣ፥ ራሱም የወደዳቸውን ወደ እርሱ ጠራ፥ ወደ እርሱም ሄዱ።

¹³He went up into the mountain, and called to himself those whom he wanted, and they went to him.

¹⁴ከእርሱም ጋር እንዲኖሩና ለመስበክ እንዲልካቸው፥

¹⁴He appointed twelve, that they might be with him, and that he might send them out to preach,

¹⁵ድውዮችንም ሊፈውሱ አጋንንትንም ሊያወጡ ሥልጣን ይሆንላቸው ዘንድ አሥራ ሁለት አደረገ፤

¹⁵and to have authority to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons:

¹⁶ስምዖንንም ጴጥሮስ ብሎ ሰየመው፤

¹⁶Simon, to whom he gave the name Peter;

¹⁷የዘብዴዎስንም ልጅ ያዕቆብን የያዕቆብንም ወንድም ዮሐንስን ቦአኔርጌስ ብሎ ሰየማቸው፥ የነጎድጓድ ልጆች ማለት ነው፤

¹⁷James the son of Zebedee; John, the brother of James, and he surnamed them Boanerges, which means, Sons of Thunder;

¹⁸እንድርያስንም ፊልጶስንም በርተሎሜውስንም ማቴዎስንም ቶማስንም የእልፍዮስን ልጅ ያዕቆብንም ታዴዎስንም ቀነናዊውንም ስምዖንን፥

¹⁸Andrew; Philip; Bartholomew; Matthew; Thomas; James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot;

¹⁹አሳልፎ የሰጠውንም የአስቆሮቱን ይሁዳን።

¹⁹and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. He came into a house.

²⁰ወደ ቤትም መጡ፤ እንጀራም መብላት ስንኳ እስኪሳናቸው ድረስ እንደ ገና ብዙ ሰዎች ተሰበሰቡ።

²⁰The multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

²¹ዘመዶቹም ሰምተው። አበደ ብለዋልና ሊይዙት ወጡ።

²¹When his friends heard it, they went out to seize him: for they said, “He is insane.”

²²ከኢየሩሳሌም የወረዱ ጻፎችም። ብዔል ዜቡል አለበት፤ ደግሞ። በአጋንንት አለቃ አጋንንትን ያወጣል ብለው ተናገሩ።

²²The scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebul,” and, “By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons.”

²³እነርሱንም ወደ እርሱ ጠርቶ በምሳሌ አላቸው። ሰይጣን ሰይጣንን ሊያወጣው እንዴት ይችላል?

²³He summoned them, and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan?

²⁴መንግሥትም እርስ በርስዋ ከተለያየች ያች መንግሥት ልትቆም አትችልም፤

²⁴ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

²⁵ቤትም እርስ በርሱ ከተለያየ ያ ቤት ሊቆም አይችልም።

²⁵ If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

²⁶ሰይጣንም ራሱን ተቃውሞ ከተለያየ፥ መጨረሻ ይሆንበታል እንጂ ሊቆም አይችልም።

²⁶ If Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he can’t stand, but has an end.

²⁷ነገር ግን አስቀድሞ ኃይለኛውን ሳያስር ወደ ኃይለኛው ቤት ገብቶ ዕቃውን ሊበዘብዝ የሚችል የለም፥ ከዚያም ወዲያ ቤቱን ይበዘብዛል።

²⁷ But no one can enter into the house of the strong man to plunder, unless he first binds the strong man; and then he will plunder his house.

²⁸እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ ለሰው ልጆች ኃጢአት ሁሉ የሚሳደቡትም ስድብ ሁሉ ይሰረይላቸዋል፤

²⁸ Most certainly I tell you, all sins of the descendants of man will be forgiven, including their blasphemies with which they may blaspheme;

²⁹በመንፈስ ቅዱስ ላይ የሚሳደብ ሁሉ ግን የዘላለም ኃጢአት ዕዳ ይሆንበታል እንጂ ለዘላለም አይሰረይለትም።

²⁹ but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”

³⁰ርኵስ መንፈስ አለበት ይሉ ነበርና።

³⁰—because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

³¹እናቱና ወንድሞቹም መጡ በውጭም ቆመው ወደ እርሱ ልከው አስጠሩት።

³¹His mother and his brothers came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.

³²ብዙ ሰዎችም በዙሪያው ተቀምጠው ነበሩና። እነሆ፥ እናትህ ወንድሞችህም በውጭ ቆመው ይፈልጉሃል አሉት።

³²A multitude was sitting around him, and they told him, “Behold, your mother, your brothers, and your sisters TR omits “your sisters” are outside looking for you.”

³³መልሶም። እናቴ ማን ናት? ወንድሞቼስ እነ ማን ናቸው? አላቸው።

³³He answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?”

³⁴በዙሪያው ተቀምጠው ወደ ነበሩትም ተመለከተና። እነሆ እናቴ ወንድሞቼም።

³⁴Looking around at those who sat around him, he said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!

³⁵የእግዚአብሔርን ፈቃድ የሚያደርግ ሁሉ፥ እርሱ ወንድሜ ነው እኅቴም እናቴም አለ።

³⁵ For whoever does the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.”
